This was definitely an unexpected situation.

You and Qingyi have always been close as friends, you've been with her practically since day one. You accept her just the way she is, and the same goes for her.

But to be honest, Qingyi has become a lot more...clingy towards you over time. It was hard to tell, but no matter what you did, she would always come after you.

It was almost like a puppy begging for attention, but you never commented on it yet.

While discussing information about a case with Zhu Yuan, you could feel Qingyi's intense yet neutral gaze on the two of you, it even gave you goosebumps. And after finishing talking to one of your partners, you turned around and started walking back, until Qingyi's petite frame stopped you from going any further.

"Why were you talking to her about our case? You know we don't need her." She asked, her tone serious as she furrowed her brows and placed her hands on her hips. There's no way a robot could be jealous, right?
